G V Prakash is still getting compliments for making Dhanush sing a number in Aayirathil Oruvan, but the music director is certainly not one to rest on his past laurels.
The composer recently pulled off a coup of sorts ��������� making Vikram sing in five different voices for a number in Arya���������s Madharasapattinam. Among others, the actor has sung like a dhobi, a teacher and an old man in this peppy song with an old Madras feel.

Revealing details, GV Prakash told CT that he was looking for a ���������raw voice��������� for the number. ���������It was director Vijay who suggested Vikram���������s name,��������� he says, ���������Vikram has got a rustic voice, very much like Dhanush, and this particular song Meghama Oh Meghame... ��������� the visuals of which have a lot of characters ��������� demanded such a voice.���������

Initially, the team thought that they���������d use Vikram���������s voice only for Arya���������s scenes in the song. ���������But once Vikram saw the visuals, he decided to sing the full song,��������� he adds.

The true professional that he is, Vikram immediately got down to practising for the song. ���������He surprised us by ���������performing��������� his part in the recording studio,��������� reveals Prakash, ���������We were all awestruck by how he changed his voice to suit the character that he was crooning for. I���������m sure that this will turn out to be the highlight of the album that���������ll release later this month.��������� So, will he work with ���������singer��������� Vikram in the future, considering the fact that the actor has sung some superhit numbers in Kanthasamy? ���������I���������m sure we���������ll work together in future,��������� he smiles.
